I have to admit, this all began when my husband decided that he has way too many keys than he can distinguish between. So as the wonderful, helpful, and humble wife I am - I came up with a crafty solution!
Materials:
- Nail-Polish in whatever color(s) you so desire
- Clear Topcoat
- Newspaper or any surface to paint on
Step #1: I took the keys I wanted to paint off of the key ring and wiped them with a wet napkin.
Step #2: After deciding which color would go with which key (came up with different tricks to remember them - Orange for his Office), I painted the first coat of the nail-polish on them. I alternated painting each side and made sure to get all the sides and crevasses of the keys. It is important to make sure each side is completely dry before applying the next coat. To help prop-up the keys I also created a makeshift key holder from the top of a candle jar.
Step #3: The keys dried over night and then I applied the clear topcoat. After ample drying time, they were done and ready!
This project is super fast and super easy. I was so excited about my husband's keys that I painted some of my own, but make sure you have a spare key with you, so you don't lock yourself out of the house while the keys are drying on the table... :)
